I believe that those names are among the geneololgy tree that is in the book. If I can get an address I will copy the book at Kinkos and send you a copy so that you can see if they are the same people. The book also includes a brief history of the Goffs of Southwest Florida including information stating that they moved from Georgia right after the Civil War. There is also a festival in Englewood Florida on Labor day weekend that honors the Goff family and early pioneers to the area. I will be attending to help with my study. I will send the book when I get an address. I hope it helps in your family history search.
